摘要
Background: Aortic stenosis is associated with concentric left ventricle (LV) hypertrophy or remodeling resulting in impaired diastolic function and elevated left-sided filling pressure. We investigated the changes in LV geometry and LV filling hemodynamics, giving emphasis to parameters associated with changes in diastolic function after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). Methods: Comprehensive diastolic assessment was performed before and six months after TAVI in 70 patients with severe aortic stenosis. Patients with any degree of mitral stenosis or >mild left-sided valvular regurgitation were excluded. Results: In the entire cohort six months after TAVI, LV end-diastolic diameter increased (44.1 ± 6 versus 45 ± 6 mm, P = 0.02), whereas LV mass and relative wall thickness (RWT) decreased (270.1 ± 76 versus 245.1 ± 75 g and 0.53 ± 0.15 versus 0.46 ± 0.1, respectively; P < 0.0001 for both). Lateral e′ increased (5.8 ± 2 versus 6.6 ± 3 cm/s, P = 0.03) and left atrium (LA) volume, E/e′ ratio, and systolic pulmonary pressure decreased (88.1 ± 30 versus 80 ± 28 cc, 18 ± 7.8 versus 16.3 ± 5.5, and 42.7 ± 14.9 versus 38.7 ± 12 mmHg, respectively; P < 0.05 for all), suggesting reduction in LA pressure. The improvement in LA volume and E/e′ was almost exclusively seen in patients with LV hypertrophy before TAVI (P < 0.05 both), as opposed to patients with concentric remodeling. Conclusions: In our preliminary study, TAVI resulted in LV and LA reverse remodeling, and improved LV relaxation and LA filling pressure in patients with severe aortic stenosis and concentric hypertrophy. Patients with concentric remodeling at baseline seem to have limited improvement in LV diastolic function and filling pressure following TAVI, but larger clinical trials would be required to conclude if they have no improvement at all. © 2013 Japanese Society of Echocardiography.
